Viz's dictionary of 12,000 "definitions" is the perfect app companion if you like to put on a posh voice and engage in verbal shenanigans and double entendres. Anything that describes Adrian Chiles as a "cushion-faced former presenter" is fine in our book. Ruder things abound.

A mobile RPG in which virtual crimes take place in real places, Life is Crime is London-as-Gotham-city cool. Build reputations and don't forget to keep your turf out of the hands of other players, gangsta .

Onavo's been on the Apple App Store for a while but now Android users can now join in on the data saving action. There's no data crunching on this lite version but it will tell you how much of your data plan you've scoffed each month and which apps are sapping the most pennies.

One for holiday planaholics, the ShowMe London app lets you build personal itineraries for your time in the big city. Browse attractions, see what else is nearby and add resturants, pubs or stadium visits to each day. Wikipedia entries provide (mostly) accurate potted histories and extra info.
